so, you know, that's not exactly the way ronald reagan did. >> get your treasury secretary, get them up discussing the details now, not go out talking to the press. >> look, the deal of last summer did not take place in the press. it was a six week extended the duration, which they got 85% of the way he would deal. and the format of the deal -- >> you've got to get 100% to close at. >> everyone understands that there wasn't a deal. the question is, if there's going to be a deal now, will it look like the one that almost was last summer? and i think it probably will. and the framework on that deal wasn't crazy. it was basically 1 trillion on entitlements, 1 trillion on discretionary, 1 trillion on revenues, 1 trillion -- that's approximate what it is. there was still argument over should 1 trillion of revenue just come from high income people, should it be smaller, bigger? should the indictment, social security or medicare? all of that's important but that's basically what the deal will be. you should have in your mind it is going to be a grand bargain that's what is going to look lik
